Alexis is currently a PhD student at Sorbonne ISTeP since October 2023. His research focuses on the deformation of accretionary prisms in subduction zones. Using numerical simulations, his PhD research aims to better understand the subduction zone seismic cycle.

H2 production associated with mantle wedge hydration in subduction zones

H2 production associated with mantle wedge hydration in subduction zones

Dihydrogen (H2) is a promising source of energy that may allow reducing carbon emissions in industry and transportation. Artificial production methods have been explored, natural sources of H2 (also called white dihydrogen) offer a more eco-friendly and cost-effective production process. In this week’s blog post, Alexis Gauthier, a PhD student from ISTeP, France, is discussing the H2 production pr ...[Read More]
